Grape Variety: Aglianico
 
Alcohol: 13.5% Vol
 
Vinification:The grapes are hand-picked in crates at the end of October, then destemmed,fermented and macerated for 2 weeks. Extraction of primary aromas and the phenolic component is carried out by various cycles of pumping over,followed by post-fermentation maceration. After racking, the pomace is soft pressed and the wine is immediately transferred to tanks for malolactic fermentation.Now enriched with its extractive component, the wine is ready for ageing in wood (French oak barriques for 9 months) and steel vats.
 
Colour: Dark ruby red

Bouquet:The nose offers up delicate hints of red fruit,cherries and blackberries, as well as overtones of tobacco, toastiness and delicate notes of vanilla, followed by an after-aroma of cherry jam.
 
Taste:The concentrated, soft and well orchestrated taste reveals a mature and elegant tannic component. On entering the mouth, it proves generous and gratifying, with tight-knit and elegant tannins and a lingering finish.
